Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
I used to work at Amazon on this, and I know A LOT about how this technology works. If I remember correctly, JWO began to separate from Amazon Fresh back in late 2022 when they told us they would cancel JWO in the new Amazon Fresh upcoming stores and use their new dash carts instead. They told us that the focus would instead be selling JWO tech to third party vendors, such as stores in stadiums and airports.
I know (somewhat outdated) about how most of their tech works, as well as some of the internally-stated reasoning behind their business decisions. AMA lol
Wouldn't this turn the store into a 'stealing minigame'?
I mean yeah, you can try, but it's actually kind of difficult. It's way easier to steal from any conventional store, probably.
yeah, that makes sense. I guess it just feels like a dare.
A price tag on anything in any store is a dare imo. You just have to weigh the likelihood of succeeding if you accept the dare and what the stakes are if you fail.
